This is probably off topic but when is the Train Station's Referb supposed to be completed?

Maybe once its Rephineas is complete.

Huh?

DL Emporium below. Shh. Don't tell WDW management. They might communicate to DL management and eliminate the old timey feel.

Saw this mostly finished yesterday. It doesn’t look nearly as bad in person. Some fake hardwood floors would make it look a lot better. Home goods is despicable.

Huh?

Referb/Rephineas, does this provide a sufficient hint ?

Looks like Disney is standardizing check out in their stores using furniture to naturally create a queue rather then queues snaking throughout the shop.

Hey, they're making progress! I only see TWO different floors in that photo.

This view for area with registers on both sides reminds me a bit of at DS and should help lines move pretty good

I've seen more merch at Cast Connections... Or the warehouses at the outlet malls!

I agree. I posted in other threads, I was at EPCOT and wanted a new hat. I had MONEY for the taking!

There were only 4 hats to choose from, none I liked.

I seem to remember MouseGear in the old days had A WALL OF HATS to choose from??

They lost a sale there.

Same day I wanted to purchase pastries on the way out and stopped into the Odyssey, it was going to be about $40 worth, I just checked before if there was bags or boxes - NOPE! Disney lost more of my money!

It's funny to me how CC has more selection than the parks themselves in most areas, but it's just the merch nobody actually bought. Personally, I rarely buy anything other than pins anymore anyway, but it's not lost on me that the lack of selection is probably why. Only store with some level of selection is WOD, and even that is dramatically down from what it was when I was a kid!
